Height evidence
The previous 5 ft 5 in (about 165 cm) answer could not be tied to a reliable personal statement or measurement record in the reviewed sources. It remains an unverified estimate.
Crooked Media’s programme page verifies her podcast work. A broadcaster biography is not automatically a height record, and a seated television interview cannot establish a barefoot figure.
